Description

Eastaway is a house, originally a manor house, dating to the early 19th century. It incorporates a portion of a late 17th-century building at the rear. The 19th-century section is stuccoed stone, while the late 17th-century section is cob. The roof is slate, with brick gable end chimneys. The house has a double-depth plan, with an entrance leading into a corridor that provides access to the rear staircase. It is two rooms wide; the front rooms are from the 19th century, and the rear right room is part of the 17th-century build.

The symmetrical front has five windows, with a central porch featuring Roman Doric columns and an entablature decorated with triglyphs. The ground floor windows are timber sashes with 2 panes over 4, and the first-floor windows are similar. The front door consists of six fielded panels. The ground floor corridor is paved with white marble. The front left ground floor room contains an original marble fireplace, panelled shutters, a late 20th-century cornice, and wall panelling. The front right ground floor room has an original marble fireplace, a round-headed recess in the rear wall, an ornamental plaster border to the ceiling, and panelled shutters. Six-panel doors lead to the ground floor rooms. An early 19th-century staircase has turned balusters and a ramped moulded handrail. The ground floor room at the rear right has three axial beams with ovolo mouldings and run-out stops, with some cross beams being renewed. This room features a large fireplace with a replaced beam and a cloam oven. The first-floor rooms have wide two-panel doors. A wall adjoining the front left side has four blocked round-headed arches. A cart entrance adjoining the right gable end has a chamber above and may have previously been an entrance to an inner courtyard dating from the 17th century. A late 19th and early 20th-century greenhouse adjoins the right gable end, with a lean-to roof against the cart entrance. Eastaway Manor was annexed by the Duchy of Cornwall following the dissolution of Launceston Priory.
